Ole Miss did it years ago.

This isn't State's first one either. Don't know how this thread got derailed like it did. Well, actually I do.

Is that a thing in college? I thought that was only done in high school.

So, they keep them outside while the menfolk dress up and cheer at the football games...?

Those aren't cheerleaders; that's a dance team.

ETA: Incidentally, the cheerleaders are beside them, very pointedly NOT looking at the girls walking past.

Well, duh!

Way more drama when the queen is a male

Actually State elected Frank Dowsing “Mr. MSU” back in 1972 so this is not something unprecedented at all.
He along with Robert Bell were the first two black football players at State when they were signed in 1969.

Race relations in MS are actually much much better than they are any where else in the nation. Yes you have an occasional incident but that is the rarest of the rare and thus it makes the news. 99.99% of the rest of people in MS get along very well with each other, whether it is work, school, church, sports, civic activities. Black , white, Hispanic does not really matter.
Of course that does not fit the narrative of people who make a living off trying to keep racial discrimination, Division, issues in the forefront. So they have to create mountains out of molehills to keep themselves relevant at least to themselves.

So as a State grad, this isn’t a big deal at all. I am very happy for her as the Homecoming Queen but the fact that she is black is nothing extraordinary. She is because she earned it the right way.

2004, an early hint TAMU and MU would one day be in the SEC.

She'd get my vote. She's hot and an athlete instead of just some random sorority girl.

An SEC school electing a black homecoming queen doesn't happen all the time.

I imagine it doesn't take many votes to win.

Why is this a racist thing?
Typical SEC posters.
The south will never change.

LSU homecoming court has been very diverse over the years and is more about philanthropy than anything else. That shift happened back in the 90's that I can remember.
